Dual Xeon Gold 5317 1U Server
The Dell PowerEdge R650xs is a 1U rack server equipped with two Intel Xeon Gold 5317 processors. Each CPU provides 12 cores at a 3.0 GHz base frequency with a 3.6 GHz turbo. The system targets virtualisation, cloud infrastructure and dense data analytics workloads.
Sustained Load Behaviour
Dual 1400 watt platinum power supplies deliver redundant hot-swap power for continuous operation. Registered ECC DDR4 memory at 2933 MHz across eight 32 GB modules maintains data integrity under heavy multitasking. The PERC H745 controller with 4 GB NV cache and battery backs write performance during extended RAID rebuilds.
Storage and Network Limits
Eight 2.5 inch bays accept SAS and SATA drives managed by the H745 supporting RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60. A Broadcom 57412 dual-port 10 GbE SFP+ OCP 3.0 card defines the network ceiling. NVMe support is noted in the platform but no NVMe drives or adapters are included in this configuration.

Questions about this item
How much heat do the dual 1400 W Platinum supplies push into the rack when the server runs at full load all day?
The redundant 1400 W Platinum power supplies operate at high efficiency, reducing waste heat even under sustained maximum load from the two 12-core Xeon Gold 5317 processors.
Which networking gear must I already have to use the installed OCP 3.0 card?
The Broadcom 57412 dual-port 10GbE SFP+ OCP 3.0 adapter needs compatible SFP+ transceivers and a 10 GbE switch with SFP+ ports.
Can my existing 2.5" SAS drives plug straight into the eight front trays?
Yes, the eight 2.5" front trays accept both SAS and SATA drives, so current 2.5" SAS SSDs or HDDs install without adapters.
